Link to the s*n, so likely 80% exaggerated, but bad nonetheless.

To describe it as a concentration camp is actually highly offensive. It's a camp thrown together from next to nothing to to house people quarantined in Hong Kong. Hong Kong quarantine rules are different to those in mainland China - though, no doubt, a positive result would have seen the same happen there too. She's in a private air-conditioned room that's clean and has its own bathroom.

To say that she is 'starving' is also nonsense. The article even shows a picture of a menu with multiple options of food for breakfast including what Hong Kong would consider to be a 'western option'. When she told the camp staff she was hungry she was given additional packet noodles and biscuits. I'm pretty sure the food isn't great, but it would be edible.
